    Default need ideas

    ok so heres the situation:
    i have this very boring class. no one pays attention, most people either space out and/or listen to music. and because the teacher gives us the questions/answers tot he quizzes/tests a week before we take them, no one pays attention and we still pass. personally, i draw intricate war-scene pictures. maybe ill scan one for you guys eventually. they really quite cool.
    but im running out of ideas.
    ive done monsters attacking cities, aliens, civil wars, ETW-style wars, medieval wars, WW2, naval battles, air battles, amphibious invasions.
    anyone have any interesting ideas for me?

    What about ancient wars?

    You could draw Gauls v Romans, or Makedonians v. Persians or something.

    And definitely get some of those scanned, man!

    Texas
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Read Lucan's Civil War Book 9... Cato fighting the snakes. Then draw the rather graphic descriptions that Lucan describes - some of them are bizarre and quite gory.

    This sounds like German 1-3 when I was in high school. Why don't you work on other homework?

    well something as obvious as homework he catches. hes even called me out for drawing a few times, but i do it anyways.
    but the Ichigo defeating an army of millions on his own idea sounds nice.
    and SFTS, what about Texas?

    You could draw scenes from Dante's Inferno. That way, not only would you be occupying your time, but everyone around you would think you're demented, or dangerous, or both!

    greeks v. trojans i did the same thing all through middle school history. when i wasnt sleeping of course. im talking build the war up and slowly have the trojans retreat from the beaches to the final battle in the main keep.

    When i did it it was amazingly epic and took me the whole year, no stick figures everything was amazingly detailed. loved it and cherished it as my own, i still have it in a locked safe in my room.

    alright, here they are:

    bear in mind the scanner kinda messed them up a bit, but not too much. also, i drew them on the back of a sheet with hebrew on it so you can see it, which is really annoying. after all, they are class doodles.
    the one about Ichigo:
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    you can put it in your sig if you want.

    now a few more:

    the bridge
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    the assault
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    attacking a robot marshaling area. as you can tell its not going very well.
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    and finally a bunch of ships sinking.
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    enjoy!

    maybe ill rescan them later to see if i can get rid of the words ont he back and the other unwanted stuff.

    Thumbs up Re: need ideas

    I used to draw stickmen doodles back in elementary school. Then when I was almost as old as Hooahguy, I started acting my age and drew more advanced pics, like this relic (with a pen, no less) :
